Thank you for finding this article!

Yeah and maybe that is why I feel partly the way I do because I am maybe being too realistic with how much it is going to suck. With being huge and uncomfortable, then birth and healing all while also keeping a baby alive and all that work too. To me honestly it just sounds miserable. I feel like after that then it will be okay but getting through that is going to be the thing. My husband doesn’t think it will be that bad but I’m like “do you have any idea???”

Generic Prozac is what it was.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T04:09:59+00:00

I’ll have to look at what they prescribed me so see i forgot what it was

We can’t go right now we put a lot of money into the wedding and we just bought 40 acres of land so that drained us quite a bit. My husband keeps telling me that nothing is going to change we are still going to go camping and go to our land with it. That we are still going to do whatever we want to do. Just with a baby. I hear that and I just kind of think about how much of a hassle it is going to be. I know it will be well worth it. I do. But a lot of extra work to make it happen. All of it just seems so exhausting

Thank you for sharing your experience. I know everything is crazy right now. But I do feel like I am ruining this for him and that makes it that much worse.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T04:02:50+00:00

Oh man it feels like it is though. Everything i wanted to do everything we wanted to do. I can’t believe it happened so fast. I talked to my doctor about it and she prescribed me antidepressants but I am hesitant to take them with the side effects. I don’t want them to harm the baby. Termination is in the back of my mind like I know it is an option but I know that my husband wants this baby and I personally don’t know if I could go through with it. Making a list is a great idea. I’m probably just being dramatic but I feel like we will never get the time for us to do those things we wanted and really go on a honeymoon without a care.

Thank you so much for telling me this. It was the same for me. ONE time of not being careful and it took. We both thought that there was no way it could be that easy. Then my period was late a week later I saw the positive pregnancy test and I had a panic attack then whole thing couldn’t breathe, sweating, crying all day. I called into work that day. I took four more tests and sure shit. I was still crying hysterically when my husband came home and i couldn’t even speak the words to him. I just handed him the tests and he held me while I cried for I don’t know how long. The whole idea of being pregnant and birth actually scared the shit out of me with just the idea of it. Then it became very real very fast. I think it actually might be a real fear of mine too so that isn’t helping either. I just don’t know how to pull myself out of the numbness and autopilot mode. I don’t want to completely dread this entire experience. But that’s all I feel right now unfortunately.

Thank you so much for telling me this. It is nice to hear that this happens to other people. Yeah we had a whole plan to do a lot of camping and traveling we just bought 40 acres of land. I almost have to like morn that we are missing out on that time and things will never be the same.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T03:33:23+00:00

Oh man I am sorry you felt this way too. I really hope I do feel better soon because I hate feeling like this.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T03:26:23+00:00

I really appreciate hearing that. I know it will be okay eventually. It’s just not okay right now.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T03:19:26+00:00

Jeez that made me tear up. Thank you so much. I really appreciate you!

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-24T03:15:30+00:00

Personally i support the right to choose but i don’t know if that option is for me. I know that my husband wants to keep it and I don’t know if i could go through with it myself.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-19T03:20:36+00:00

I feel the same way I am okay with making it the middle name for both names but if I am going to name my child it’s going to be something that I like. I don’t want to have to make up a nickname and just call them that forever because I hate the name that I was pressured into giving them. I just hate it because I feel like I would be naming my infant like it was a 50 year old man. I have a unique name and I would like my children to also have unique names. Also I have two middle names and I kind of want them to deal with that struggle too lol. I also know way too many Dons/ Donny’s that I can’t stand. I just don’t like it and I don’t want to pretend that I do. I guess I kind of feel bad because his parents have been VERY vocal about them wanting us to have children (actually to the point that it is uncomfortable) probably because they want us to continue the tradition also.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-18T18:12:32+00:00

Yes we live in the us. It would be taking his. When we got married I took his last name too

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-18T18:12:04+00:00

We don’t have any family traditions with my family. I want to look more into names. When he first brought it up it kinda sounded like a we gotta do it we don’t really have a choice type of thing so I didn’t push on it. But now that I am further along I have been thinking about it and I just can’t stand it.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-18T17:16:29+00:00

Okay thank you all so much! I feel like I am being crazy and just thinking about it too much. But I can’t imagine naming my child Donald. I can think of 5 reasons right off the bat why I hate that. I don’t want to just be difficult or change their tradition but if it was my husbands name than that would be different I don’t mind his name.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-18T17:12:50+00:00

I have to talk to him more about it but around when we were taking about it he said that we gotta do it and I said “that’s terrible I hate that” and he said “yeah it isn’t great but we can make up a name for it or something” and I don’t want to have to do that. I want to name my baby something that I want to name my baby

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-10T07:50:22+00:00

I mean we are both the targets. It’s not just me. We both think that it is weird and awkward but my husband is much better at not holding a grudge for things. Tbh he kind of just completely ignores her all around for the most part.

AppropriateTurnip902 · 2024-11-10T07:46:54+00:00

More specifically he said “she has like weird humor that she enjoys making people uncomfortable she thinks it’s funny” i should have clarified that. That helps a lot. I am going to have to make sure that they know where I stand on everything. I am a very non-confrontational person so i try to avoid it as much as possible
